Found within the boundary of Mission Trails Regional Park, Lake Murray is a reservoir that is settled between the city of San Diego and the La Mesa and Santee neighboring communities. With small boat and kayak rentals available, visitors can float out onto Lake Murray for a sunny day of fun and relaxation.

Lake Murray is a popular destination for picnicking, bicycling, jogging, rollerblading, and walking. Walk, jog, bike, or rollerblade as far as the dam gate, which totals about 3.2 miles, for an active productive day off.

Have a family-fun day at one of the 64 picnic tables and 10 barbecues available for visitors to simmer down and relax with waterfront views, magnificent weather, and great memories.
